Fallujah, Iraq
An aerial photo taken shortly after Marines called in close-air support to breach a wall surrounding a mosque shows the accuracy of the laser-guided bomb. Marines were under attack from enemy forces using the protected site as a platform from which to fire on advancing Marines. Marines blasted the wall and killed attackers inside.
